美國最危險的地區在哪裏？答案會讓你驚訝

Alaska is by far the most dangerous state in the nation, according to the business website 24/7 Wall Street.

The most sparsely populated of all U.S. states, Alaska has the highest rates of rape and aggravated assault in the nation. In 2017, there were 117 rapes and 575 aggravated assaults for every 100,000 residents. Both of those statistics are more than double the corresponding national rates.

Last year's murder rate in Alaska was up 20 percent over the previous year.

New Mexico comes in at No. 2. There were 784 violent crimes — murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault — for every 100,000 New Mexico residents in 2017. That is way above the national rate of 394 incidents per 100,000 people.

With aggravated assault numbers that are nearly double the national rate, Tennessee ranks as the nation's third most dangerous state. Most of the state's violent crime is concentrated in urban areas, where the violent crime rate is more than 1,000 incidents per 100,000 residents.

Louisiana and Nevada round out the top five most dangerous states, according to the study. While violent crime declined overall in the United States in 2017, the crime rate actually went up in some of the most dangerous states.

To reach its conclusions, 24/7 Wall Street assessed data from the FBI, Department of Justice and the Census Bureau. Only cities with populations of at least 10,000 were considered.

On the other end of the spectrum, the least dangerous state is Maine, according to the report, with 121 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

Other states that were deemed the least dangerous in America include Vermont, New Hampshire, Virginia and Kentucky.根據一個商業網站華爾街24/7的消息，阿拉斯加是全美最危險的州。

阿拉斯加在美國所有州中人口最少，但強姦案和暴力傷人案在全美的比例最高。 2017年，平均每10萬居民中發生117起強姦案和575起暴力傷人事件。這兩項數據都是全美平均統計數據的兩倍多。

阿拉斯加去年的謀殺案件比率比上一年增加了20％。

新墨西哥州排在第2位。2017年，每10萬新墨西哥州居民中就發生784起暴力犯罪時間，包括謀殺、強姦、搶劫和暴力傷人。這遠高於全美平均每10萬人中發生394起暴力事件的數據。

田納西州的暴力傷人案數量幾乎是全美的兩倍，成爲美國第三個最危險的州。該州的大多數暴力犯罪集中在城市地區，那裏每10萬居民的暴力犯罪率超過1000起。

根據這項研究，路易斯安那州和內華達州也進入最危險州的前5名。雖然2017年美國的暴力犯罪總體下降，但這些危險州的犯罪率實際上卻上升了。

華爾街24/7網站在評估了聯邦調查局、司法部和人口普查局的數據後得出這份報告。引用的數據來自人口至少爲10,000的城市。

另一方面，報告指出，美國最安全的州是緬因州，每10萬居民中有121起暴力犯罪事件。

被認爲是美國危險最少的其他州包括佛蒙特州、新罕布什爾州、弗吉尼亞州和肯塔基州。
